3 lbs. stew meat
1 lb. 12 oz. can tomatoes
1 1/2 lb. pkg. frozen stew vegetables
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 c. quick cooking tapioca
1/3 c. red wine
Several pearl onions
1 (5 1/4 oz.) can water chestnuts, sliced and drained
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 tbsp. salt

Combine all ingredients in 5 quart Dutch oven. Do not brown meat. Stir gently to blend. Cover. Bake at 250 degrees for 5 hours. DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR!! This will serve 6 or 8 people generously. Very good. All you need with it is garlic bread or cornbread and maybe a salad.
